I sent a letter and SAE to David on: 28th July 2008, and today I recieved a signed photo, I have finally got a real personalization from David I'm so happy. :D, he even put ' WHY NOT?' on the envelope, which is really nice of him.

address I used was:

David Tennant,
c/o Royal Shakespeare Company,
The Courtyard Theatre,
Southern Lane,
Stratford Upon Tyne,
Warwickshire
WV37 6BB

Here is the pic: Image

Great success {up} 8) . I sent him a photo yesterday which Catherine Tate signed for me In person- I hope I get it back.

He is still replying very quickly. I am sure he must get lots of mail but I just think he is great at replying to his fans especially while he is doing theatre I think he must have a bit more free time.

Big congrats {thumb2} {thumb2} - David Rules.

P.S - I dont really get why he wrote 'why not'.

While yes, he's not filming, he's doing 6 shows a week (some weeks more, what with matinees) and rehearsing during the day. It's not like this is time off for him :) We should all be careful not to send too many requests, lest we be too greedy.

I know it is not time off for him but he often replies within a few days. thats his choice to reply so fast and gives the impression he has a lot of free time. As I said before Im sure he has other commitments besides the play but he obviosly cares about his fans. Im not sure just how much rehearsing they do now.

I am not greedy. I am just using this great opportunity to get him to sign and authentically personalize. And as I have already writen twice I am prepared of the fact that he may not reply this time and I won't write again as to give others a chance.

For one its Stratford -upon- Avon and not Tyne

But yes, its certainly a possibility it didnt reach him. I recomend leaving it a few days and send another request if you dont hear back say by Tuesday.

Good luck {thumb2}

You might be lucky, but it will definitely take longer. There's a postcode on there so it probably will, but you need to remember the town/city and street in future :)

I'd leave it a while. If you're sending from overseas it will take longer to reach him and come back anyway. If the postcode is there, it should get there.
